This is Week 8 of the college football season, meaning that our fleeting little bastion of fall sports fun is two-thirds of the way over. What the hell?? It always happens this way, and then January rolls around and you’ve got bland NFL football to watch, and then March Madness is nice, but after that we get to be disappointed by the Braves again for an entire summer.
As we enter this week, the playoff picture is starting to take shape, real contenders are emerging, and pretenders are falling off. Sadly, one of the former lives across the state from us, and they’ve got another easy game this weekend.
